While I was finishing up a dump for Empire Earth, CDMage reported finding "1 corrupted sector". The disc is a data-only disc (1-track) with 150 - 247,232 sectors, and according to the error log the bad sector is at 247,229. 

Track #| Sector|Sync|Header|Subheader|EDC|Intermediate|ECC P|ECC Q|Severity|Content of sector
      1|247,229| No |  Yes |   N/A   |Yes|    Yes     | Yes | Yes |Medium  |Yet not identified

I've dumped the disc 3x using different drives, but the error remains present. The disc itself is rather nice and only has a few hairline scratches; all of which are vertical and not horizontal. While it could be due to a scratch...the fact that it's one (and only one) sector is odd to me. Any thoughts?

EDIT: According to Burnout, there is no protection on the disc, so it doesn't appear to be a SafeDisc related issue. Plus, it's at the end of the disc.

Cheers!

Seems to be a SecuROM sector, which is causing this 1 error.
You can ignore it and submit your dumping results (include CDmage error log like above to your dumping submission).

SecuROM

Okay. Any reason BurnOut didn't detect it? It's an older game. I would have double-checked it with ProtectionID if I could get have gotten it to run, but it's currently incompatible with Win7 x64. sad

I'll go ahead and post it all the same, but I'll note that it uses SecuROM unless instructed to otherwise. Also, where it indicates Error Count (CDMage), should I put "1" and identify the erroring sector? Or should I just put "1" and leave it at that?

Cheers!

Numeric values only, no further explanation.

Did you run a disc structure scan?

Yep sounds like securom sector. It's not actually and error, just the sector is a different mode than the rest of the disc.

What issue is protectionid giving you? It works fine here on 64 bit windows 7.

Regarding ProtectionID, I addressed the issue in this thread: http://forum.redump.org/topic/13204/pro … s-burnout/

As for the current dump in question...should I go ahead and put "1" or "0"  in the error box? I'm figured I already need to say SecuROM in the protection field. wink

Did you run a disc structure scan?

Quite possibly...but I'm not exactly sure what method you're referring to. smile

You could upload the exe to me somewhere and I can scan it for you if that needs to happen.

You put 1 error in the form.

Thanks to Nexy's help, I was able to perofrm a sector-scan using ProtectionID...and sure enough: SecuROM Signature v4 or lower was detected.

Thanks for the help!

Can you scan the .exe itself and give me the version number.
